Join Dive and More (formerly Aqua Spirit Dive Expeditions) on this underwater photography focused Maldives dive trip October 20-27, 2018 on a 7-night dive trip aboard the Carpe Novo Liveaboard – the newest member of the Explorer Ventures Fleet! The Carpe Novo only began service in March 2016! This is a new 22-passenger, 140-foot wooden-hull safari yacht. Staffed by a crew of 13, the most experienced and qualified in the Maldives that will provide you with the best experience possible.

Diving in the Maldives is a truly unique experience! It is the best year-round diving destination in the Indian Ocean. Who doesn’t like to see Manta Rays and lots of them? Top it off with some Whale Sharks and a beautiful vivid reef where you can find small colorful creatures hiding amongst the corals, such as the Ghost Pipe Fish and tiny Flatworms and you will not want to get out of the warm and clear water!

More Details:

Underwater Photo Pro, Ran Mor of Mozaik Underwater Cameras will be leading the trip and will offer an UW photo workshop for those interested. During the trip, you will get a chance try out new gear – perhaps a different camera/housing, a strobe or a wet lens, and test it on one of the many Mantas or Sharks you are bound to see under the water!

We secured the best route for our group! Our trip will follow the special Central Route, starting at Baa Atoll and ending in Male.
